ESD Benches & Anti-Static Workstations UK manufactured to suit your requirements
Spaceguard designs ergonomic ESD & Anti Static workbenches to suit your process.
ESD benches are available with both four leg and cantilever frames in a wide range of sizes, to suit any workspace. We manufacture fully bespoke electronics workbenches and also production systems.
These electrical workstations are ideal for all kinds of electronics processing including assembly, quality control, repair and testing.
Anti-static Workstations & ESD Workbenches once grounded can be incorporated into an EPA (Electrostatic protected area).
Our comprehensive electrical bench designs can also be adjusted to fit automation equipment between or within the workstations.
Due to the complex nature of ESD benches please contact our technical sales team to discuss your requirements and to also receive a free quotation.

ESD Benches are essential for electronics manufacture, repair & refurbishment
During the manufacturing process of circuit boards, the components used are often negatively affected should an electro static discharge occur.
Even if relatively inexpensive component fails, these may be part of a much more expensive board. This incurs a higher repair / replacement cost.
Electro static discharges can be eliminated with the Spaceguard ESD workbenches, ESD bench matting and kits, and associated equipment.
Integrated ESD workstations and automation for assembly and test lines
As a UK manufacturer, Spaceguard is able to work closely with customer to manufacture ESD production, process and testing lines to suit your specific process.
All our ESD workstation products are available with the wide range of accessories.
Please contact our sales to discuss your specific requirements.
Terms used in connection with electro static
Electro static discharge –Â Occurs between two electrically charged objects with different electrical charges. This is caused by actual or close contact or a dielectric breakdown.
Anti-static –Â Â When the build up of static is prevented by ensuring an item is not insulted so can conduct electricity.
Dissipative – The electrical charges are allowed to slowly and in a controlled manner find their way to earth.
Conductive – Electrical charges pass easily over or through materials.
Insulative – Are materials which prevent or limit the flow of electrical charges. So are difficult to earth.
ESD Accessories & Options
ESD Anti-static Floor mat
ESD approved floor matting with EPDM foam backing for anti-fatigue benefits.
Diamond patterned anti-slip rubber top is also resistant to oil spills.
Grounded via a 10mm male stud which is factory fitted to the mat.
Bevelled on all sides even on cut lengths.
- Depth: 9mm.
- Wear resistance: Very Good.
- Slip Resistance: Excellent.
- Anti Fatigue: Very Good.
Personal ESD Grounding Products
A wide range of ESD grounding products meeting IEC-61340 standards are available for supply with Spaceguard workbenches.
- Wrist straps
- Heel grounders
- Grounding plugs
- Spare Cords/Leads
Antistatic ESD Chairs
We supply ESD chairs, stools and sit stands that are designed and manufactured for use in the electronics and electrical industry assembly areas.
ESD chairs and stools conform to EN 61340-5-1:2001 European Standard and are suitable for use in static controlled environments.
This range of chairs prevents the build-up of static electricity by dissipating any static charges directly to earth via a conductive wheel or glide.
